This is a good cd. The wailing paddle and new england covers are good. Those kids suck and checklist are my favorite songs on the cd probably. I'd give it a 5 but the cd could do without the acoustic version of the song on goodluck, the song with just talking, and "what the hell are you gonna do" which is 6 secs long. But i recomend this to any big d fans, and just anyone else who wants to listen to good music. Its cheap to.

This was a pretty good cd. The shock troops portion of the cd is definatly better, but i liked running riot as well, it just took a while to get into. Overall its pretty good. And with the amount of songs it has its a good deal.

wow! this is a great cd. i first heard common rider on a the hopelessly devoted to you vol 4 sampler, and i thought the vocals sounded familiar, so i looked into it and found out it was Jesse Micheals, a pleasent suprise I must say. It's differenet thean op ivy, but still great. the best songs are probably 3,5,6,7,8,12. But there all great. i recomend this cd to anyone

Common Rider broke up, yea it sucks, but Jesse Michaels is back with an all new band the planet smashers. A new diverse kind of music you will not find anywhere else. It's like a mix between Punk, country, and the fun-loving ska you would expect from an ex-Operation Ivy member. The band consists of a 12-piece symphony orchestra, a steal guitar player and believe or not a harp player!..I think I even heard some kazoo also.. If you don't believe me go check this awesome cd out! The best songs on here are probably 1,2,4,7..but they are all great in their own special way. My favorite song on their is "I'm amazed at what I can destroy with just a hamner". SO GO OUT AND GET THIS CD NOW..before it's too late! Laterz sk8ers.
